We’ll promote it on !communitypromo@lemmy.ca and !newcommunities@lemmy.world
Impact for people here would be minimal. We can even ping regular posters and commenters like https://lemmy.world/post/24312613

So there is definitely a population. It is actually a quite popular community on its own on the whole platform with 2.28K users / week and 3.56K users / month. You can see it on https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active, it’s in the top 50, and only being dedicated on movies content.
